My daughter (she's just in the 5th grade) just got her first phone call from a buddy tonight and she talked on the phone quite awhile. Do you keep it to 10 minutes or so? We both work, and after dinner and baths don't have a lot of family time together, and she sees her friends after school. I think it's great that she has her own special friends, but also want to have time in the evening to read books and work on writing, etc. and to play. :)
Thank you!

That's great that she has friend calling her. I think 10 minutes is a fair amount for her age. My daughter is in first and has gotten 2 phone calls and I let her talk for about 7 or 8 minutes. What do they have to talk about? He he. After that much time, they get bored and ramble. Good luck. :)
My parents went by age. At five you got 5 minutes. At 10 you got ten minutes and so on. We never got to have long phone calls but got what we wanted to say , said, in our allotted time. :)
Well my 10-year-old daughter talks a lot on the phone about 40 minutes, but not all at the same time like 20 and 20.
For about five minutes. They don't have a lot to talk about.
